Okay, part of the routing is done, but there is still a great deal of concern over the plate shape you selected for the front routing:

Here it's a little more onvious what we're all talking about in the shop:

The Spoiler plate shape is awfully close to the bridge block and pickup, and the Skylark shape is much more similar to the photo you sent in with your original request. Peter and Bob are hoping you'll reconsider the shape. Whaddayathink?

hi mica. no problem w/ the plate shape. we can go w/ peter and bob's recommendation.

my concern is with the pu location as when i spoke w/ susan way back (a yr ago) we discussed the "sweet spot" being in the middle (brigde & neck). just like the old distillate japanese basses. it looks like this bass is routed w/ the pu pretty far back toward the brige. so, can the pu location be moved forward? if not, can we add another pu at the neck? thanks, adam

It's really hard without having our monitors calibrated to eachother, but does this blue look close to what you had in mind? If I didn't know you called this color Daphne blue, I would describe it as a bright baby blue.
